We Are Looking To Sponsor An Amatuer Drift Driver - It Could Be You!


Recommended Posts

Well we've conquered the circuit racing / sprints scene at QR (but alot of you have probably still never heard of us!) so now we want to get known by getting into the drift scene :D our workshop is located in Coorparoo.

we would like to sponsor an amateur drift driver who lives in the Brisbane area.

the driver we choose gets free labor for all servicing, mechanical repairs and performance upgrades to ensure we keep the car running for entry in drift practices and events.

in return we would require that you regularly enter and drive in drift practice events at Queensland Raceway, drive in other local drift days, and make appearances at local cruises and dyno days etc.

we would also require the car to have our workshop signage that would be similar to the following logo:

the car would need to be presentable and the driver would need to show a high level of ability.

if this sounds like something you would like to do, send me a pm and tell me a little about your car. you will need to enter your car in the Friday night drift practice at QR on Jan 18th 2008 where I will be able to check out your driving style.

seasons greetings :P

Registering to Try out for the Sponsorship

you can either register on the night by coming to see me on pit wall at the exit of turn 6 or by sending me a pm.

details I need are your Name, Car, Suburb and Mobile No.

after the Jan 18 drift night we will contact the driver and also post the selected driver in this thread.

good luck to everyone! :)

i may get down there to check it out...i was sliding a last year but stopped to rebuild the car, if you were offering this last year i would have been there straight away, if you want details on perhaps a future deal i can PM you details of the car.

who did you end up going woth peter , can't wait to see them out on track , been looking for it at all the events i've been too.

I heard only 1 person ended up going to see him on the night. Would have thought there would have been heaps which was why I didn't.... that and im only starting out.

we are still looking for someone to sponsor. I will be out at QR again this Friday night for those who are interested.

I am also interested in looking at guys competing at archerfield. anyone who is interested, send me a pm to arrange a viewing.

by the way, I competed at Morgan Park supersprints on the weekend and finished 6th in class, which wasnt a bad effort considering the competition which included 2 GT40s and an ex Carrera Cup Porsche GT3 Race Car.

well done Peter , was there any other Jap cars running ?

yes there were a couple of silvias, two or three R33s, a couple of EVOs, a couple of WRX STis, and a whole bunch of 240Z - 260Zs.

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
